Procedure
26 g of 2,2,5,5,6-pentamethylcyclohexanone are dissolved in 500 ml of ether and treated slowly at -20° C. with 113.5 ml of methyl lithium (1.5 molar in ether). After stirring for 3.5 hours at 0° C., the mixture is poured on to ice, acidified with 1N hydrochloric acid, extracted with ethyl acetate, dried and evaporated. Distillation of the crude product gives 25.9 g of 1-hydroxy-1,2,2,5,5,6-hexamethylcyclohexane as a colourless liquid of boiling point 87°-92° C./10 mm Hg.
